Truth, your ever-waking stream
Passing through me, scorching
In its wake. A fever, holding me,
Set me free from its embrace.
Exalting me in blissful sweetness,
Setting me aflame: You, genuine and unvarnished
Extending open palms, mind and soul
In ethereal benevolence.

The author's comments:
This was inspired by a friend who is very interested in the cosmic universe. I wanted to describe his impact in a way he would understand.
